From Temple food trucks to the jazz scene in Philadelphia to Heinz Wildlife Refuge to Yards Brewing Company to ComedySportz, from apple fritters at Reading Terminal to top-of-the-tower tours at City Hall to the view from the Ben Franklin Bridge, Philly 101 shared a great wealth of ideas for things to do and places to check out in Philadelphia.

It’s been a wild ride. Now we end it with a well-known Philadelphian who’s fond of taking his own wild rides on the baseball field in his personal ATV: the incredibly popular, incredibly awesome Phillie Phanatic.

We got to spend some quality time with Tom Burgoyne, Best Friend of the Phillie Phanatic, who also gave us insider access to his buddy the Phanatic’s locker room. We hope this video sends positive vibes the Phillies’ way so they can add to that W column; we have faith!
